However, if they then say the...

Hi There,
Expect this is an old question.
I'm currently with Napit. Chose them because their Code-breakers is such a useful tool. However, their on-line Notifications facility is not working and I've spent two days chasing their support office to no effect. Any of you folk had a better...
